Angela Lloyd combines music—washboard, ukulele, autoharp and bells-- and personal stories, poetry and folktales; Janice Del Negro is a folklorist and a master of the ghost story, being an award-winning author of a supernatural collection and the co-author of the current edition of Storytelling—Art and Technique; Peninnah Schram’s specialty is Jewish folklore, which she has performed internationally and teaches as a faculty member of Yeshiva University in New York.  All three have performed at the National Storytelling Festival in Jonesborough, TN.  Tim is a Texan and is a wonderful storyteller of personal and Bible stories, and a gifted emcee.
